1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Reversing established muscle atrophy following mechanical unloading is of great clinical challenge. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to play important roles in myogenesis. Here we identified a lncRNA (mechanical unloading-induced muscle atrophy-related lncRNA [lncMUMA]) enriched in muscle, which was the most downregulated lncRNA during muscle atrophy development in hindlimb suspension (HLS) mice. The in vitro and in vivo data demonstrated that the decreased expression levels of lncMUMA closely associated with a reduction of myogenesis during mechanical unloading. Mechanistically, lncMUMA promoted myogenic differentiation by functioning as a miR-762 sponge to regulate the core myogenic regulator MyoD in vitro. The enforced expression of lncMUMA relieved the decreases in MyoD protein and muscle mass in miR-762 knockin mice. Therapeutically, the enforced expression of lncMUMA improved the in vitro myogenic differentiation of myoblasts under microgravity simulation, prevented the muscle atrophy development, and reversed the established muscle atrophy in HLS mice. These findings identify lncMUMA as an anabolic regulator to reverse established muscle atrophy following mechanical unloading.
